The 2010 bowl week is finally here for Oklahoma State. This is a time for the Cowboys to enjoy their successful season while looking ahead to capping things off with a victory in the Alamo Bowl against Arizona. Check out what OSU has been up to since arriving in San Antonio.[details]

Notes: Also competed in basketball and track as a Mississippi prep before spending 2008 at Copiah-Lincoln Community College (Miss.), where he tallied 119 tackles, seven pass breakups and an interception with two sacks and two forced fumbles in nine games. Backed up Broncos '10 fifth-rounder Perrish Cox in '09 - logged 33-6-1 with a tackle for loss in 11 games (one start as injury replacement). Cracked two vertebrae and sustained a concussion against Oklahoma and missed the season finale. Returned to start all 12 games played at the field corner in '10 (didn't play vs. Troy because of a concussion), totaling 51-7-5 with three tackles for loss and one forced fumble. Had a bothersome knee drained multiple times and coped with a broken left wrist and a stinger.

Positives: Looks the part with very good size and less than five percent body fat. Reads and reacts quickly. Aggressive in run support - sacrifices his body to spill and is a physical tackler. Good zone awareness and ball recognition. Is tough and will play hurt. Demonstrated perseverance returning to the field after a career-threatening injury as a junior.

Negatives: Slow-footed and stiff-hipped with a rigid lower body. Limited in man coverage - exposed on an island. Is not sudden, struggles in transition and does not pop out of breaks. Marginal stop-and-go quickness and recovery ability. Limited cover skills. Durability is a concern.

Summary: Played out of position and survived as a collegiate field corner, but best chance in the pros might be at safety given his aggressiveness, physicality and tackling ability, although injury history does not support the move. Developmental free safety.
